I'm a huge huge Madonna fan and I agree with this (well... except for the "can't sing" part. ok she's not always "on" live but she's a really good interpreter of what a song needs vocally and has great tone and attitude - two key ingredients for making great records)

But this "performance" sucked. Plain and simple.

She should have some out and given it sox with a great band instead of doing slow, crickety cartwheels with a bunch of no-talent hacks backing her up. She had an opportunity here and she blew it.
